Thank you, I've added it as W14. I think this one will be a long term 
task.
 
The hierarchic schematics part (sch-rnd side) is on my TODO list for this 
year. pcb-rnd-sude subc-in-subc will take a lot of time to get all details 
right, then we'll need to figure how to put this in the otherwise flat 
netlist.
 
Best regards,
